Right, here we go. What are your tricks towards preventing riots in far off (fx newly conquered) places. I know the obvious ones: lower taxes, recruit as fast as possible, transfer as many soldiers as possible from happier, nearby places, and start constructing anything that gives + in public order, as well as lining up as many of such constructions as possible, of course with the fastest being started first. Of course, there is also the 'move capitol' one, but in cases, where you've got these kinds of settlements in BOTH ends of your empire, it doesn't really work . Sometimes I've kind of juggled capitols for a while - one turn in the east, one turn in the west, one turn in the east, etc., so riots will only last 1 year, before dying out for 1 year - in order to prevent actual revolts.

But once your empire gets larger, it all gets terribly difficult, especially those places, where you can give them low taxes and fill the entire garrison up and still be unable to stop the riots.

Anybody know a few useful tricks? FX how to combat culture penalty?
